Paying Attention:
The San Antonio Spurs lost their playoff series with the Golden State Warriors last night, after a very tough series in which they went full throttle despite the loss of three of their best players (Kawhi Leonard, Tony Parker, David Lee). With a little over 2 minutes left in the fourth game of the playoff series, San Antonino Coach Gregg Popovich took one of San Antonio’s longtime stars out of the game, Manu Ginobili, to a thunderous ovation. Was last night’s game Manu’s final one as a Spur? Certainly hope not…but if it was, the fans gave him the sendoff he so richly deserved after all the years and championships. Manu, thanks for all those clutch performances…..
